Filming

Production Schedule
We decided to film our production over three different days. This is because the final part of our production is filmed in the day time and the beginning of our opening is filmed in a night shot in the late evening. The first night we filmed we decided to film just the running scenes this is because it was the trickiest shots to get because it's mainly hand-held. That evening we found it wasn't great filming outdoors because the weather can be unpredictable; it started to rain and so the vampires couldn't be filmed because of how cold it got and their make up started to smudge and smear. The next night we filmed all the vampire shots and the final night shot of the moon and the group. This was shot a few weeks after the first date; so the moon was in an eclipse which matched our film title. The weather was also a lot dryer and a little warmer so filming the vampire shots was a lot easier because the characters wasn't to cold. The final date we shot the whole scene at the end of the film of the boy being taken by a vampire this is to give a hint on what the story may be about and to stop stereotypes of vampires attacking at night.
